Re: Slapping and Popping

Great bassist! Gadzooks! I see what he's doing. I guess I'll just have to plug on and see if I can replicate it.

I know. Every time I hear that clip I go back and try to learn some more...

Nope. No neck dive. It sits pretty neutral which makes it feel even lighter because the strap does not pull tighter on either side. The weight bears down at the apex of the shoulder and not the front or back. Bear in mind that it is a semi-hollow. The back and sides are one piece African Mahogany and the center block is substantial. The neck is Honduran mahogany (reclaimed) and the fingerboard is Brazilian (reclaimed).
